Below is my recipe for a nice tasty nutritional spice cake that is made
with some surprising ingredients. In addition, because the original recipe has
a long history, which probably predates the depression era, read my
"Baker's Note" as well.

In a small bowl combine flour, hazelnut
meal, baking powder and spices.

Whisk well and add to tomato soup mixture.

Beat together for 1 minute on medium speed.

Add fruit juice

Blend well, 2 -3 minutes. Until creamy texture

Pour into prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes.

After 30 minutes test center of cake with a toothpick,
if it comes out clean, remove from oven. If it is still moist, bake the
remaining 5 minutes

Cool on wire
rack

Top each serving
with cool whip or ready whip ice as desired.

Baker's
Note:

This
recipe is a variation on a Great Depression Era tomato soup cake. I learned
about it from several YouTube videos and websites. However, after reviewing
some of the ingredients in those recipes, I decided to tweak a favorable recipe that called for fewer ingredients. The most noticeable changes were that I halved
the recommended spices as I generally use wholesale spices, which to me are
stronger than what is sold in local stores.

In
addition, because I like hazelnuts,I decreased
the flour to 1 1/4 cup, and replaced it with a fourth of a cup of hazelnut
meal.This made the batter thicker than
it needed to be so I added some fruit juice.I recommend either Sunny D Original or 100% orange juice.

As
for the title of this recipe, it is my personal choice because I used Saigon
cinnamon, which is bolder than regular cinnamon, and I like the sound of it.

The
trick about many recipes is thatit is
fun making them your own. So feel free to add your own tweaks to suit your taste.

Why I don’t add much casual summer wear?

I remember a time before long slacks for women became an acceptable norm. It was a time in which women dressed more stylishly and glamorously and felt more feminine too.

This is another Seven Ninety Seven goal. To recommend to women of like minds more stylish fashion reminiscent of the dresses women once enjoyed wearing for whatever reason or occasion at reasonable prices.

You don’t have to be a star to look like one.

Remember!
